I'm getting a NullPointerException when I use ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE to take a picture

I have a fairly simple app that launches the camera from a menu. The camera launches fine, but when I hit ok after taking a picture I get a NPE on my nexus one:

E/AndroidRuntime( 3891): java.lang.RuntimeException: Failure delivering result ResultInfo{who=null, request=0, result=-1, data=null} to activity {net.asplode.tr/net.asplode.tr.PostImage}: java.lang.NullPointerException

Code:

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    if (item.getItemId() == R.id.mnuCamera) {
        Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
        values.put(Media.TITLE, "image");
        Uri tempPhotoUri = getContentResolver().insert(Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, values);
        cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, tempPhotoUri);
        startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, FROM_CAMERA);
        return true;
}

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (resultCode != RESULT_OK) {
        return;
    }
    Uri imageUri = data.getData();
    Log.i("imageUri: ", imageUri.toString());
}

Turns out the stock camera application doesn't send EXTRA_OUTPUT, which is why it's null. However, some camera apps (like the hero) do. Awesome. So the answer is to specify EXTRA_OUTPUT. The nexus one camera app will save the image to that location. Then in onActivityResult() check if the intent is null. If it isn't, use data.getData(), and if it is then use the location specific in EXTRA_OUTPUT via a constant and insert it into the Mediastore. Urgh.

This doesn't really seem like a question, more like a factual statement. If you are asking what is null, there are two things that can be null:

-The Intent 'data'
-The Uri 'imageUri'

Did you add the Extra, 'EXTRA_OUTPUT', to the Intent? If not, you will only be able to retrieve a small sized image in the Extra field. And this would seem to perhaps be your NPE, happening on 'imageUri'.

Based on nsheridan's solution, i just made the fileUri that I added in the intent (intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, fileUri);) known throughout the class. In the ActivityResult(), I checked whether the intent == null, if so, the fileUri variable is used instead of trying to get it out of the intent.getData().

Works fine for me now.
